I'd hate to be the gladiator on this day.

Wadsworth Antheneum, Hartford, CT.

So I have to ask, where are these statues?

The 'thumbs down' is one of those gestures that everyone knows the Romans did. Except, we don't. We know that feedback was given by some sort of gesture; this particular one was invented by Hollywood in the early part of the 20th century.

They're in the lobby of the Wadsworth Antheneum in Hartford. I think they're funny, although I'm not sure whether they precede Hollywood or not. They could very well be rich wives of the board denying someone funding because their work is too subversive.
